Abstract:This analysis can be placed halfway between the followers of endogenous growth and the neoclassicals. The purpose is twofold. On the one hand, it retorts a neoclassical model but only for the European Union. On the other hand, we introduce a common variable, the R&D, from a different point of view.So, the typical growth equations have been estimated, and following, the reach and strenght of the results have been contrasted with process less used in this literature.
